The Five Giants Foundation is getting ready to launch in September 2024. We are a new people powered think tank.
We will bring together frontline workers, service users and senior leaders, in order to understand the new faces of the Five Giants in a modern world. How can we best tackle the issues that have taken root again during austerity, at source, in the most cost effective way?
By rooting ourselves in practice, we will be able to rediscover the common sense held by welfare state founders including Nye Bevan and Jim Griffiths. Much of their design for the welfare state in 1948 came from experiments over the previous century which proved what works to prevent ill health, early disability and early death. Early deaths are on the rise again for the first time since 1948. Now is the time for us as a society to rediscover this learning and use it to tackle early death today.
